Happy Ostara

To celebrate Ostara, the vernal or spring equinox, I made this cheerful little wreath to welcome spring into our house.

It's a styrofoam ring covered in different types of green yarn, including some eyelash yarn to mimic grass. I bought the little nest with the eggs last Easter and got the bird which originally was a Christmas tree decoration in the January sale, I found the flower and the butterfly in my box of craft supplies. It was a really quick and cheap, yet fun project to do and it sure brightens up my kitchen.
